How To Make A Website In Under 15 Minutes! | WordPress Tutorial

In today’s video, we are going to show you how to build a website for your business or personal use in under 15 minutes.

We are going to break this tutorial into 5 easy to follow steps: First, we are going to create a domain, then we are going to find a reliable hosting company. After that we are going to connect our host with our new domain. The next steps will be to install WordPress on your new website and customizing it.

► First step: Creating your domain Getting a good domain is important, because that’s where people will find your website. The best place to buy a domain currently is Namecheap. You can find the link to it on the description below. Go to namecheap and find a domain that you like. After that, create a new account on namecheap and fill in all your details.

► Second Step: Getting a good hosting After you’ve registered your domain, you need to get a good host. There are counless of hosting companies out there offering different hosting plans that go as low as $1 per month. There’s always new hosting companies popping up, so make sure you check out the links in the description for the best hosting available.

► Third Step: Connceting your host with the domain This is the most important step, because in this step we will make the site accessible to the public. – First off, go to namecheap and login to your dashboard. – Find the domain you purchased and click on “Manage” – On the “Nameservers” part, choose “custom DNS” – Here we will write the nameservers of our host. You can find these by googling “Hostname + nameservers”. They are different for every host. I will make sure to include these in the description below depending on which host i am recommending. – After doing that and saving your settings, we are ready to move on. – Go to your hosting and login to the cPanel. – Find “Add-on domains” part on the dashboard – Fill in the domain you just bought and click “add Domain”

► Fourth Step: Installing WordPress If you’ve came this far, congratulations. Your website show now be live. However, the website is still empty since we do not have anything in it. Now let’s install WordPress on our brand new website. – Go to your hosting dashboard – Search for “softaculous insaller” – Find wordpress and click “Install now” – Fill in the information exactly as i am doing on the screen – Congratulations! Your website is now live, but it looks ugly. Let’s customize it to look great.

► Fifth Step: Customizing Your Website Wordpress is very easy to use, and there are a lot of ‘drag-and-drop’ plugins out there which can help you get the website you exactly wanted. – Go to Plugins – Add New – Search for “elementor” – Install & Activate The Plugin – Next go to Themes – Add New – Search for “Hestia” – Install & Activate the theme.

Now we have a site that looks better than the default one. Let’s edit it a bit more. – Go To Themes – Customize – Let’s add in an image related to our business – Let’s add in some text and information about us – Next, talk a bit about your services/products – Remove some unnecessary sections – Let’s create a menu with pages for our users

There we go! Your website is live! You can dig in deeper to edit it even further to make it look exactly as you want, and you can check our future tutorials for that. Thanks for watching!
